Answer:
8.91 J
Explanation:
mass, m = 8.20 kg
radius, r = 0.22 m
Moment of inertia of the shell, I = 2/3 mr^2
= 2/3 x 8.2 x 0.22 x 0.22 = 0.265 kgm^2
n = 6 revolutions
Angular displacement, θ = 6 x 2 x π = 37.68 rad
angular acceleration, α = 0.890 rad/s^2
initial angular velocity, ωo = 0 rad/s
Let the final angular velocity is ω.
Use third equation of motion
ω² = ωo² + 2αθ
ω² = 0 + 2 x 0.890 x 37.68
ω = 8.2 rad/s
Kinetic energy,
K = 0.5 x 0.265 x 8.2 x 8.2
K = 8.91 J
First you need to find the initial x component which is 13.02. After that you plug it into the 3rd formula on the AP physics formula sheet. Then rearrange it into the quadratic formula and solve for time. The answer should be 4.1 seconds.
